「Maru.」
Cross rapped his knuckles against the door to his brother's apartment. His calls and messages had gone unanswered and unread while Maru's location data continued to hover within his housing. He knew this meant Maru had slept in, effectively spitting in the face of the plans Cross made specifically for him today.
After another round of unmet knocks on the door, Cross relented with a sigh and fished out the spare key Maru gave him. He preferred not to encroach upon the others living in the apartment, but as he unlocked the door and stepped in, he felt that he had no other choice.
Immediately upon entering, he saw his brother splayed out on the couch in the living area, a snot bubble rhythmically inflating and deflating out one nostril and some kind of console still limply grasped in his hand. Cross stared at that sorry sight a moment, all emotion in his expression flatlining, then slammed the door behind him. The snot bubble popped.
